Gilbert Keith Chesterton Quote

I would jump down Etna for any public good - but I hate a mawkish popularity.

Every generation laughs at the old fashions, but follows religiously the new

A thing of beauty is a joy forever; its loveliness increases; it will never pass into nothingness

There's a woman like a dew-drop, she's so purer than the purest

Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months

So soon as a fashion is universal, it is out of date
